I've heard that it was pretty solid before. That was before all the Bill Ward chaos and more importantly Tony Iommi cancer diagnosis. Given his current state and the state of Black Sabbath, can anyone really confirm that there will actually be an Ozzfest this year? If so, who would headline, Ozzy or Black Sabbath? Also, if there is one, when do you anticipate it being announced. I remember last year they waited until April to tell everyone there was no Ozzfest... I'm sure they'd known for months.

Well I can tell you this...When the re release of Blizzard Of Oz was coming out. The OZZFEST facebook page was making all these messages telling people it's coming out. And every time they made a post I always made this reply "I Am NOT Buying A Single OZZY OSBOURNE Thing Until I Gte My OZZFEST Back". And by the 5th time I did this I get a reply FROM THE OZZFEST FACEBOOK PAGE saying "Justin OZZFEST Will Be Back In 2012". And I still haven't (And Still Wont) purchesed a single Ozzy item until I get my OZZFEST back and they lower the price of those damn VIP Packages. Last year I FINALLY had the $1,000 fucking buxx for it...And they cancelled it on me. Now I don't have it due to medical emergancies. This has been the 5th year in the row I got screwed out of the damn thing. And I want the OZZFEST VIP not OZZY. Nothing against OZZY but I grew up on OZZFES and I want to meet OZZY and the 1 festival where my life finally started back in 2000.

It changes every year but this is the gist of it. 1. A VIP tour Laminant 2. That gets you a tour of the back stage area3. Your own private little island away from the crowd with drinks4. A Gift bag of swag (Which again changes every year)5. VIP Seating (Usually down in front)6. A Meet And Greet with OZZY

And some of the various other things you have gotten through out the years have been VIP Parking, a Seat ON STAGE with OZZY, Sometimes they fed you a meal. Get to watch the second stage bands in the audio control booth (Which is usually 3 to 4 feet high so you can see above everybody). I think back in 2010 it was all of the above accept the seat on stage and the parking. And from what other people have told me. You actually get to meet OZZY. Where you have some time with him. Not like a quick 30 second meet and greet. It's just something thats been on my bucket list. Along with attending the Wacken Open Air Festival and see and meeting RAMMSTEIN!

Only a year younger than me and your life started back in 2000?! You're a late bloomer.

Well it actually started in 1999 when I attended my first Hard Rock Concert. It was a local radio station concert in South Fl called The BuzzBake Sale. But my first major tour was OZZFEST 2000.....Ah I can still here Godsmack.....
